  G
Smile
            D  
When I'm shy in ways
       F
But I love
Em             C
Everything of first impressions
D
Sweet succession

Em7
Been around for quite a while
I see you kept in versatile
Motivated to combine
Even when it's bad it's fine
D#
Did she say something
                G
That made you cry
           D  
Have you lost it all
         F
The big fall
Em
Oh so slowly
 C             D
Comes back holy

Chorus:
Em               D
Bishop takes a knight
            Am             G
But I will put up quite a fight
 C            B7     Em
Here is your ham on rye
Em               D
Elementary the chemistry
      Am             G
Means everything to me
C        B7          Em
Long progression's why

Set it off to collect knowledge
Quit a job
And go to college
All about the aftershock
Swedish latin super funk

Moses of Manhattan
Made it great
Pain we celebrate
And I love
The long progression, indiscretion

Chorus

Em              D
In between the reasons
          Am         G
Are the psychedelic seasons
 C     B7         Em
Simple as your stride
Em          D
Information intimated
 Am         G
Elegant and integrated
  C         B7        Em
Sweet your corporate pride

Smile
'Cause it's all a ride
All supplied
And I love
Everything about this session
And this long progression

Chorus

In between the reasons
Are the psychedelic seasons
Simple as your stride
Information intimated
Elegant and integrated
Sweet your corporate pride
